The BVP was a party that wanted the recreation of the old Land Baden, which became part of Baden-Württemberg in 1952. Rabbow 1970 mentions the arms and also (no surprise) the use of the flag of the former Land Baden (yellow-red-yellow triband), but not the use of the arms on this flag.

The BVP wanted the recreation of an own Land Baden after its unification with Württemberg into Baden-Württemberg. However, it was not successful in elections. To show support for the Land Baden, the BVP used the old Baden tricolor of yellow-red-yellow as party flag.
